short int s;
s = readw(your_par_port_addr);
the definition for the readw for intel machine is
given in include/asm-i386/io.h
142 #define readb(addr) (*(volatile unsigned char *) (addr))
143 #define readw(addr) (*(volatile unsigned short *) (addr))
144 #define readl(addr) (*(volatile unsigned int *) (addr))
Please correct me if I am wrong...
